I am currently unable to execute run_tests.sh/run_tests.py with the latest release of ispc (v.1.0.12).

In particular, I am seeing the following error messages when trying to execute run_tests.sh:

```
[enright@jemez ispc_1.0.12]$ ./run_tests.sh
Running all correctness tests
Unable to create ExecutionEngine: /usr/lib64/: cannot read file data: Is a directory
Test tests/aossoa-1.ispc FAILED ispc_test

Unable to create ExecutionEngine: /usr/lib64/: cannot read file data: Is a directory
Test tests/aossoa-2.ispc FAILED ispc_test

Unable to create ExecutionEngine: /usr/lib64/: cannot read file data: Is a directory
Test tests/aossoa-3.ispc FAILED ispc_test

etc ...
```

I am using the latest llvm dev branch (2011-25-10) pulled from the svn repository along with clang. This version of llvm is on my path and was required in order to build v.1.0.12 .

I am able to successfully compile and run the examples contained in the examples directory (at least mandelbrot + stencil), with the built ispc compiler. So, there is something likely wrong in the run_tests.sh/run_tests.py script.

I have been able to successfully use the run_tests.sh script with previous ispc releases.
